Huber+Suhner 85177203 RF AttenuatorStraight 20 dBMaleFemale

This RF attenuator reduces signal amplitude for measurement, testing and system protection in 50Ω RF installations. It connects inline between coaxial devices using Type N interfaces and presents a straight male-to-female configuration suited to test rigs and field setups. The unit operates across a broad radio-frequency range and endures a wide thermal span for use in varied environments.

• 20 dB attenuation providing predictable signal reduction for measurements
• Wide frequency coverage to 6 GHz enabling broadband testing
• Gold-plated contacts ensuring low contact resistance and stable connection
• Beryllium copper and brass contacts offering Durable conductivity and wear resistance
• Anodised aluminium body allowing corrosion resistance at elevated temperatures
• Operates from -55°C to 125°C for use in harsh thermal conditions

• Suitable as an RF test attenuator for lab and field measurements with coaxial instruments
• Ideal for signal-level adjustment in automation and electronics test benches
• Used for protecting sensitive receivers during alignment and calibration tasks
• Can be used for system characterisation across wideband 0 to 6 GHz scenarios
• Used with network analysers and spectrum analysers requiring Type N connections

It is designed for a 50 Ω system to maintain matching and minimise reflections in typical RF measurement chains.

The unit provides a male Type N at one end and a female Type N at the other to Interface with standard N-type cabling.

Contacts are formed from a beryllium copper alloy with brass elements and finished with gold plating to resist wear and maintain conductivity.

Yes, it is designated for low-power use, making it appropriate for signal attenuation and measurement rather than high-power transmission.
